Definitions
- This invention relates to a process for the preparation of halogenated polymers analogous to halogenated butyl rubbers. More particularly, the present invention relates to a process whereby halogenated polymers analogous to halogenated butyl rubbers may be prepared directly by the copolymerization of the appropriate monomers.
- butyl rubber as employed herein is defined to include a copolymer of a C 4 to C 6 isolefin, preferably isobutylene, and a C 4 to C 8 conjugated diolefin, preferably isoprene.
- a preferred butyl rubber contains from about 97 to about 99.5 weight percent of isobutylene and from about 0.5 to about 3 weight percent of isoprene.
- butyl rubber is prepared in a low temperature cationic polymerization process using Lewis acid type catalysts of which a typical example is aluminum trichloride.
- the process used most extensively employs methyl chloride as the diluent for the reaction mixture and the polymerization is conducted at temperatures of the order of less than -90° C.
- Methyl chloride is employed for a number of reasons, one being that it is a solvent for the monomers and aluminum trichloride catalyst and a nonsolvent for the polymer product and thus affords a slurry.
- methyl chloride has suitable freezing and boiling points that permit, respectively, low temperature polymerization and effective separation of the methyl chloride from the product polymer and unreacted monomers.
- a diluent which is a solvent for the polymer produced, examples of such diluents being the hydrocarbons pentane, hexane, heptane and mixtures of the aforementioned solvents with one another or with methyl chloride and/or methylene chloride.
- Recovery of the butyl rubber is achieved by conventional techniques used to recover rubbery polymers inducing (i) contacting the polymer slurry or solution with steam and water thereby flashing off the diluent (ii) passing the aqueous slurry through a vibrating screen or rotary filter to separate the bulk of the water and (iii) passing the polymer through a tunnel drier or a series of extruders or both to completely remove all the water and occluded gases.
- Halogenated butyl rubber which can be either brominated butyl rubber or chlorinated butyl rubber is produced by the bromination or chlorination of the aforementioned butyl rubber.
- Brominated butyl rubber typically contains from about 1 to about 3, preferably from about i to about 2, weight percent of isoprene and from about 97 to about 99, preferably from about 98 to about 99, weight percent of isobutylene, based on the hydrocarbon content of the rubber, and from about 1 to about 4, preferably from about 1.5 to about 3, weight percent of bromine, based on the bromobutyl rubber.
- Chlorobutyl rubber typically contains from about 1 to about 3, preferably from about 1 to about 2, weight percent of isoprene and from about 97 to about 99, preferably from about 98 to about 99, weight percent of isobutylene, based on the hydrocarbon content of the rubber and from about 0.5 to about 2.5, preferably from about 0.75 to about 1.75, weight percent of chlorine, based on the chlorobutyl rubber.
- halogenation of the butyl rubber is carried out in a hydrocarbon solution such as hexane using elemental chlorine or bromine in a 1:1 molar ratio relative to the enchained isoprene in the butyl feedstock.
- the solution of butyl rubber with the desired molecular weight and mole percent unsaturation in hexane may be prepared by one of two procedures; one involving dissolution of the slurry from a butyl polymerization reactor and the other involving dissolution of solid pieces of finished butyl rubber. In the former procedure the cold slurry in methyl chloride is passed into a drum containing hot liquid hexane which rapidly dissolves the fine slurry particles.
- the methyl chloride and the unreacted monomers are flashed off for recovery and recycle and the hot solution is adjusted to the desired concentration for halogenation, typically from about 20 to about 25 weight percent butyl rubber in an adiabatic flash step.
- halogenation typically from about 20 to about 25 weight percent butyl rubber in an adiabatic flash step.
- bales of finished butyl rubber, chopped or ground to small pieces are conveyed to a series of agitated dissolving vessels and solutions containing from about 15 to about 20 weight percent butyl rubber are obtained in from about 1 to about 4 hours depending upon the temperature, particle size and amount of agitation.
- the solution of butyl rubber is treated with chlorine or bromine at a temperature of from about 40° to about 65° C.
- the chlorine being introduced as a gas or in dilute solution because of its rate of reaction with butyl rubber. Because of its lower rate of reaction bromine may be used in liquid or gaseous form.
- the hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid generated during the halogenation is neutralized with dilute aqueous base and the aqueous layer is subsequently removed by settling.
- Antioxidants or stabilizers are then added and the halogenated butyl rubber is then recovered in a manner similar to that used to recover butyl rubber.
- halogenated butyl rubbers exhibit enhanced cure compatibility with highly unsaturated elastomeric materials such as natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubbers, polybutadiene rubbers and the like relative to butyl rubber.
- halogenated polymers with allylic halide functionality analogous to the halogenated butyl rubbers could be synthesized directly by the copolymerization of the appropriate monomers thereby leading to a reduction in costs associated with the process of halogenating butyl rubber.
- U.S. Pat. No. 3,067,182 (Giffin to Dow) discloses the copolymerization of from about 70 to about 99 mole percent of isobutylene with about from 1 to about 30 mole percent of isopropenylbenzyl chloride, preferably the para isomer, in an inert solvent using a Friedel-Crafts catalyst and a temperature below about -50° C. to afford a uniform copolymer having reactive benzylic chloride groups.
- U.S. Pat. NO. 3,299,020 discloses a process for the copolymerization of an olefin with an allyl halide comprising forming a first solution by mixing 5 to 25 parts of methallyl chloride and the like with 95 to 75 parts of an alkyl halide solvent such as methyl chloride, methylene chloride and ethyl chloride at a temperature of from about -5 to about -40° C.
- an alkyl halide solvent such as methyl chloride, methylene chloride and ethyl chloride
- a Friedel-Crafts catalyst chosen from the group consisting of boron chloride, aluminum chloride, aluminum bromide and stannic chloride until a strong colour develops; forming a second solution comprising 10 to 35 parts by weight of an olefin and 65 to 90 parts by weight of an alkyl halide; and reacting said second solution with said first solution thereby providing a copolymer of high molecular weight and a high intrinsic viscosity.
- the copolymer obtained by the aforesaid process does not have allylic halide functionality and thus will not exhibit the enhanced cure compatibility that the halogenated butyl rubbers exhibit with highly unsaturated elastomeric materials.
- chlorobutyl rubber may be prepared under conditions suitable for butyl rubber synthesis by copolymerizing (1) isobutylene and methallyl chloride in methyl chloride; (2) isobutylene, isoprene and methallyl chloride in methyl chloride; and (3) isobutylene and 2-chloromethyl-1,3-butadiene in methyl chloride, using aluminum chloride as catalyst. Copolymers containing up to two percent chlorine are reported to be obtained.
- our invention provides a process for the preparation of a halogenated polymer analogous to halogenated butyl rubber comprising the steps of:
- This invention is based upon the discovery that the copolymerization of isobutylene with an allylic halide substituted conjugated diolefin having a particular molecular structure under certain specific polymerization conditions permits the direct production of halogenated polymers with allylic halide functionality analogous to halogenated butyl rubbers.

- These compounds may generally be prepared by the pyrolysis of an appropriately substituted 2,5-dihydro-thiophene-1,1-dioxide.
- the preparation of 2-chloromethyl-4-methyl-1,3-pentadiene involves the pyrolysis of 3-chloromethyl-5,5-dimethyl-2,5-dihydrothiophene-1, 1-dioxide, the dioxide being prepared by a multistep sequence involving the reduction of 3-carboethoxy-5,5-dimethyl-2, 5-dihydrothiophene with lithium aluminum hydride to the corresponding hydromethyl compound, subsequent chlorination with a mixture of triphenyl phosphine in carbon tetrachloride and then oxidation of the chloromethyl compound with m-chloroperbenzoic acid.

- Suitable initiators include 1,4-di(2-methoxy-2-propyl) benzene, 1,3,5-tri(2-methoxy-2-propyl) benzene, 1,4-di(2-chloro-2-propyl) benzene, 1,3,5-tri(2-chloro-2-propyl) benzene, 2,6-dichloro2,4,4,6-tetramethylheptane, 1,4-di(2-hydroxyl-2-propyl) benzene, 2,6-dihydroxyl-2,4,4,6-tetramethylheptane, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di(t-butylperoxy) hexane, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di(t-butylperoxy) hexyne-3, 2,5-di(hydroperoxy)-2,5-dimethylhexane, 2,7-di(hydroperoxy)-2, 7-di
- Lewis acids are suitable for use in the process disclosed herein.
- Non-limiting examples include boron trichloride, boron trifluoride, aluminum trichloride, stannic tetrachloride, titanium tetrachloride, antimony pentafluoride and vanadium tetrachloride, with the Lewis acids of preference being boron trichloride and titanium tetrachloride.
- the amount of Lewis acid used relative to the amount of the initiator is not particularly critical. However, in order to be able to achieve more readily a polymer of the desired molecular weight, it is preferred that the mole amount of Lewis acid used is equal to or greater than the mole amount of the initiator used. Generally, it is preferred to use from about 1 ⁇ 10 -4 to about 5 ⁇ 10 -2 moles of a Lewis acid per mole of isobutylene.

- the polymer produced according to the process disclosed herein may be recovered by conventional techniques used to recover rubbery polymers. Such techniques include for the higher molecular weight polymers, contacting the polymer solution or slurry with copious amounts of hot water thereby flashing the inert organic solvent and any unreacted monomer. The polymer-hot water slurry may then be passed through a tunnel dryer or drying extruder.
- the polymer is recovered by (i) contacting the polymer solution or slurry with steam or by applying a vacuum to the polymer solution or slurry to flash off the solvent and any unreacted monomer; (ii) extracting acidic impurities and any remaining high boiling diluents with methanol; and (iii) drying the purified polymer to remove traces of methanol.
- the polymer solution is contacted with excess water to remove inorganic residues, the solution is dried and the inert organic solvent is then removed, as by evaporation.
- the products produced according to the process described herein are polymers bearing allylic halide functionality analogous to halogenated butyl rubbers. Evidence for the formation of such polymers is afforded by NMR spectroscopy. As an illustration the 250 MH z 1 H NMR spectrum of the product obtained upon the copolymerization of isobutylene with 2-chloromethyl-4-methyl-1, 3-pentadiene exhibits a number of signals that can be attributed to two different structures being present in the polymer.

- a minor structure in the copolymer appears to arise from 1,2-addition of the trisubstituted olefinic bond of the 2-chloromethyl-4-methyl-1, 3-pentadiene monomer to the polyisobutylene cation as a singlet at 4.0 ppm can be attributed to the methylene protons attached to the same carbon as the chlorine atom PIB(C1 CH 2 )C ⁇ CH 2 and the singlet at 5.2 ppm can be attributed to two olefinic protons attached to the same carbon atom of the olefinic bond PIBC(C1CH 2 )C ⁇ CH 2 .
- conjugated diolefins such as 2-chloromethyl-4-methyl-1,3-pentadiene wherein the olefinic bond that does not bear the allylic halide moiety bears at least two methyl substituents, that is at least both of R 1 and R 2 are methyl groups
- isobutylene upon copolymerization with isobutylene are incorporated into the copolymer to a greater extent relative to conjugated diolefins such as 2-chloromethy-1,3-butadiene wherein the olefinic bond that does not bear the allylic halide moiety, is a terminal olefinic bond, in part because of the stabilization afforded the intermediate allylic cation by the methyl substituents.
- 2-chloromethyl-4-methyl-1,3-pentadiene, 2-bromomethyl-4-methyl-1,3-pentadiene and 2-chloromethyl-3,4-dimethyl-1,3-pentadiene are the monomers preferred for copolymerization with isobutylene

After two chromatographic passes, 3-chloromethyl-5, 5-dimethyl-2, 5-dihydrothiophene-1, 1-dioxide was obtained. 17.2 g (80 percent yield).
- the copolymerizations were quenched by the addition of methanol (5 ml) to each test tube.
